A 62-year-old queer Sunnyside man who was hit in the top by two assailants while out walking at darkness nearly two weeks ago succumbed to his injuries Friday, City Councilman Jimmy Van Bramer’s (D-Sunnyside) office said.
Van Bramer, a companion of victim Lou Rispoli, has been urging the public to help grab the three men paired with the ultimately fatal assault.
The councilman had alerted the community to the crime in a news conference at his district office last Thursday and showed a picture of Rispoli in hopes any witnesses who may have seen him walking in the area had more information. Van Bramer said he was a friend of Rispoli, who worked on Van Bramer’s campaign in 2009. Van Bramer’s eyes were red as he spoke of him.
“He was a very, very strong man,” Van Bramer said. “He was funny, and he brought laughter and joy to us all.”
Rispoli was married to a dude who he had been with for 32 years. Rispoli’s husband and family have asked to linger anonymous, although friend Trail Horn read a declaration on behalf of them urging residents with facts to come forward.
